The prize winners of yesterday’s pose with their spoils.

After placing second a week ago in the Guyana Cycling Federation (GCF) 75-mile road race, Paul DeNobrega took his talents to the National Park yesterday and raced away with the spoils of the feature 35-lap event of the 26th R&R International 11-race programme.

For the second consecutive week, DeNobrega (Evolution) outsprinted Hamza Eastman (Team Coco’s) and Shaquel Agard (Linden Bauxite Flyers) who joined him on the podium.

DeNobrega, who also won a sprint prize, completed the event in a brisk one hour, 15 minutes and 31 seconds. He won by a wheel ahead of the sprint ace Eastman who snared four of the eight sprint prizes to register his first win of the season.

Last week’s race winner, Jamaul John finished fourth while Andrew Hicks and last year’s event winner, Michael Anthony, completed the top six rewarding positions.
